Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 5 | - | Warning | H303: May be harmful if swallowed | P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. | Rat LD50 value: 4760mg/kg(ACGIH 7th, 2001), 3200mg/kg(ACGIH 7th, 2001, PATTY 4th, 1994), 3870mg/kgand2542mg/kg(PATTY 4th, 1994). Calculated based on the data above. Since the calculated values was 2815mg/kg, it was classified to category 5. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on rabbit LD50 value: 10mL/kg (reduced value = 8880mg/kg) (ACGIH 7th, 2001, PATTY 4th, 1994), it was set as the outside of Category. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid (GHS definition) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Category 4 | Warning | H332: Harmful if inhaled |
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. |
Based on rat LC50 (6 hours) value: 3813ppm (4-hour equivalent 21.77mg/L) (ACGIH 7th, 2001, PATTY 4th, 1994), 21.77mg/L was judged to be vapor with almost no mist from its vapor pressure. And it was classified by the ppm concentration standard. Since 21.77mg/L was converted to 4662ppm using the conversion factor (1ppm = 4.67mg/m3), it was classified as Category 4. | |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | There was description that mild irritation was acknowledged by 24-hour apply on the skin of a guinea pig (PATTY (4th, 1994)). But the influence in apply of less than 4 hours is unknown and it could not be classified since data was insufficient. |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B | - | Warning | H320: Causes eye irritation |
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. |
We classified it as Category 2B based on the descriptions that very slight stimulativeness was acknowledged by application to the eyes of the rabbits (ACGIH (7th, 2001) and PATTY (4th, 1994)). |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | There was description that slight skin sensitization was acknowledged by one example (20%) among five examples in the test which used an adjuvant of the guinea pigs for PATTY (4th, 1994). Although there were few tested animals and this result did not suit positive criteria, since there was also no description which negates sensitizing clearly in the source of Priority1, we presupposed that we could not classify it since data is too insufficient for classifying it to be Out Of Category. |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 (Narcotic effects) | Warning | H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness (narcotic effects) |
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Because of descriptions in ACGIH (7th, 2001) and PATTY (4th, 1994) referring to confirmation of comas (narcosis), hyporesponsiveness against sound stimuli, and oligopnea in inhalation exposure tests using rats. So it was judged as indication of anesthetic actions, and determined to be Category 3 (anesthetic actions). | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (kidney) | Warning | H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (kidney) |
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on the descriptions that the renal effects were observed with the concentration of the guidance value range of Category 2 in the inhalation exposure test using the rat (ACGIH (7th, 2001) and PATTY (4th, 1994)), we classified it into Category 2 (kidney). | |
10 | Aspiration hazard | Category 2 | Warning | H305: May be harmful if swallowed and enters airways |
P301+P310: IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P331: Do NOT induce vomiting. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Category 2 because of a ketone composed of 13 carbon atoms or less. |
Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Not classified | - | - | - | - | It carried out the outside of Category from 96-hour LC50=159mg/L of fishes (Fathead minnows) (ECETOC TR91, 2003). |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Since not water-insoluble (aqueous solubility =5400mg/L(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)) and acute toxicity is low. |
